If you're not familiar with Morioka Reimen, it's a cold noodle soup dish with a unique, chewy and starchy texture to the noodles. 'Reimen' is originally from Korea, but Morioka reimen was developed in the Iwate region in Japan. The dish is usually spicy, but can be adjustable, with a piece of fruit in the soup to balance out the heat.
Here, at Pyonpyonsha, there are four levels of spice available, including the mildest where the spice comes separately for you to adjust to your own liking. The noodles are perfectly chewy, as they should be, and this dish is refreshing and satisfying.
The menu is vast, with many different options of mixing and matching dishes so that you are able to eat everything you would like. If you are someone who has difficulty in making decisions what dish to get, this menu will allow you the option to not leave your meal unsatisfied. There are also specials, such as the 'overflowing pork' on rice, pictured below.
Some examples of the lunch sets include:
- Reimen + Kalbi BBQ Meat + Namul (different sizes available) = ¥1780/¥1980
- Mini Reimen + Mini Dolsot Bibimbap + Mini Korean Pancakes + Mini Namul + Mini Braised Dish + Mini Dessert = ¥1630
- One noodle dish + 'something extra' (e.g. mini Bulgogi on rice, Kimbap, Mini Bibimbap) = ¥1380
...and lots more! You can check out their full menu here.
For something different from the regular Japanese staples, try this place out- it's going to be like nothing you've tried before.
